BlockBeats News, October 7th, according to official sources, Virtuals officially launched Unicorn as its next-generation Launch mode, aiming to enable community members to truly co-own the future AI agent while attracting high-quality founding teams to long-term ecosystem development. Unlike the previous Genesis model, Unicorn no longer only pursues fairness but emphasizes early belief and long-term value.
Each Unicorn project starts from a low valuation, and early participants can receive asymmetric rewards; the founding team only receives funding as the project actually grows, ensuring responsibility and long-term development. The launch process includes a creation stage, early trading stage, and transparent team allocation mechanism, with anti-rug-pull mechanisms and ecosystem airdrops rewarding VIRTUAL holders and active community members. The Unicorn model will gradually replace the Genesis point system, migrating the reward mechanism from points to VIRTUAL staking and ecosystem activities.
Each Unicorn Launch will allocate 5% of the total supply to true community members: 2% allocated to VIRTUAL stakers; 3% allocated to active Virtuals ecosystem participants. Airdrops will be distributed weekly, with snapshots taken based on VIRTUAL staking and Virtuals ecosystem activities.
